Expert Reply:
The 13 and 12 in the tires sizes indicates that one fits a 13 inch wheel and one fits a 12 inch so they are not compatible with each other. You need a properly sized tire. The closest match we are going to have is a 175/80-13 trailer tire. You will want to match the construction of the existing tires on the trailer so if you are using bias ply tires use # AM1ST77. And if you are using radials use # AM10210.
